Would you please pray for my brother? I just found out that my brother, Brad lost his job today. He was already looking for a new job last year, and then got this one, and now with cutbacks, he was the one from his department (managerial) that got laid off. They’ve already been through SO much. This is the brother whose son has been in the hospital repeatedly with Ulcerative Colitis, something they’re still trying to deal with. I just feel so sad for them, and want to cry. I am already praying, and will ask anyone I can to pray as well for he and his wife and family. My sil was hoping to go full time with her job this month, but they too are cutting back, and so they can’t hire her full time at this point. At least they recently switched their health care to hers, so they’ll still have that for now, but the cost of this illness, and everything has been so difficult for them. God has a plan, I know that, but I just wish they didn’t have to go through this right now, as they’ve had to go through so much already this past year.

Thanks.
Love,
Tracy

Praying, Tracy. I'm on my way to Adoration and will say a special prayer for him and his family.

I remember praying for your brother's son, Tracy. I will pray for this family now! May St. Joseph guide your brother to a job quickly!
